No, there's not going to be a poll. A poll would be hilariously easy to cheese; moreover, we're not in the business of polling the playerbase on whether or not we should patch out an exploit.
We're not interested in any further meta-arguing. Frankly, we've allowed too much of it. If you want to talk about the topic, go ahead. If you want to argue about the conduct of your arguments over the past month, go somewhere else.
On a less nostalgic note, please remember that this thread is for feedback and not for endless rounds of rehashed arguments. Thank you for reading; you may now return to your nostalgia.
